Development of infectious transcripts and genome manipulation of black queen-cell virus of honey bees
(Microbiology Society, 2002)
The South African isolate of Black queen-cell virus (BQCV), a honey bee virus, was previously found
to have an 8550 nucleotide genome excluding the poly(A) tail. Its genome contained two ORFs, a
5«-proximal ORF encoding ...
Hypoglycaemic activity of biosynthesized copper oxide nanoparticles in alloxan-induced diabetic Wister rats
(Wiley, 2023)
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder that affects the body's ability to produce or use insulin. This study evaluated the hypoglycaemic activity of biosynthesized copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) ...
Reports of plant-derived nanoparticles for prostate cancer therapy
(MDPI, 2023)
Plants have demonstrated potential in providing various types of phytomedicines with chemopreventive properties that can combat prostate cancer. However, despite their promising in vitro activity, the incorporation of these ...
Reports of plant-derived nanoparticles for prostate cancer therapy
(MDPI, 2023)
Plants have demonstrated potential in providing various types of phytomedicines with
chemopreventive properties that can combat prostate cancer. However, despite their promising
in vitro activity, the incorporation of ...
Ozone and nitric oxide induce cGMP-dependent and independent transcription of defence genes in tobacco
(Wiley, 2009)
Here, we analyse the temporal signatures of ozone (O3)-induced hydrogen peroxide
(H2O2) and nitric oxide (NO) and the role of the second messenger guanosine
3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) in transcriptional changes ...
Identification of a novel alkaliphilic esterase active at low temperatures by screening a metagenomic library from Antarctic desert soil
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009)
The cold deserts of the McMurdo Dry Valleys, South Victoria Land, Eastern Antarctica, are widely acknowledged as
having the harshest soil environments on Earth (6, 8, 26).
Despite the apparent hostility of the environment, ...
Reports of Plant-Derived Nanoparticles for Prostate Cancer Therapy
(Plants, 2023)
Background: Plants have demonstrated potential in providing various types of phytomedicines with chemopreventive properties that can combat prostate cancer. However, despite their promising in vitro activity, the incorporation ...
Characterization and expression analysis of heme oxygenase genes from sorghum bicolor
(SAGE Publications, 2019)
Heme oxygenases (HOs) have a major role in phytochrome chromophore biosynthesis, and chromophores in turn have antioxidant
properties. Plant heme oxygenases are divided into the HO1 sub-family comprising HO1, HO3, and ...
A simple, high-throughput modeling approach reveals insights into the mechanism of gametophytic self-incompatibility
(Nature Research, 2016)
Specificity in the GSI response results from the S-haplotype-specific molecular interaction of S-locus
F-box (SLF/SFB) and SRNase proteins in the self-incompatibility locus (S-locus). The answer to the
question of how ...
Post-translational cleavage of recombinantly expressed nitrilase from Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1 yields a stable, active helical form
(Wiley, 2007)
Nitrilases convert nitriles to the corresponding carboxylic acids and ammonia.
The nitrilase from Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1 is known to be inactive
as a dimer but to become active on oligomerization. The recombinant
enzyme ...
